The Vegas Golden Knights scooped up one of the last remaining notable free agents Wednesday, agreeing to a one-year deal with American forward Phil Kessel.

The deal carries a price tag of $1.5 million and ensures another veteran presence on a team looking to return to the playoffs after missing out last season.

Nazem Kadri has agreed to a contract with the Calgary Flames, sources tell ESPN, as the free agent center ends weeks of speculation about his next NHL destination.

The contract is for seven years and carries a $7 million cap hit, according to a league source.

To make salary-cap space for Kadri, the Flames also are working on a trade to send center Sean Monahan to the Montreal Canadiens, according to multiple reports.
